FPSE is a federation of twenty member locals, each with its own autonomous, democratic structure. Member locals have elected executives. Many locals also have elected officers with paid time release for union business and providing grievance handling, bargaining, and other member advocacy services. 

Presidents of each local are members of FPSE’s Presidents’ Council.
